Teaninich

The Teaninich Distillery was built in 1817 nearby Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. The malt whisky produced at Teaninich has been one of the main components used in the Johnny Walker blends and its whisky was unknown until the first official bottling was released in 1991. Independent bottlings are also available occasionally.

The MO ÒR Teaninich from 1983 matured 26 years in a bourbon hogshead barrel.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Fresh nose with hints of lemon, but also a tad medicinal. Reminds feintly of cardboard and old paper.

Taste: Magnificent combination of honey and malty flavours. Sweet but still some oak and wholegrain cereals as well.

Finish: Lenghty, typical finish with some mint and lavender. Plus a bit of oak. Very complex.
